It depends on whether you want the IIT tag or not. Even if we don’t consider the IIT tag, IIT Dhanbad will definitely be a better option. I say this based on the reviews I git from my friends at both the institutes. Here are some of the reasons why you should choose Dhanbad.

Placements:

Here are the recent placement statistics of IIT Dhanbad.

Highest CTC 48.36 LPA
Average CTC 14 LPA
Major recruiters Microsoft, Morgan Stanley, Sprinkler, etc.

The figures given above do not contain recruitment through GATE, UPSE, IES, etc. So, the portrayed figures are lower than actual numbers.

Other than the impressive placements, IIT Dhanbad also offers a great academic environment. You will have helpful seniors and professors. It also puts a lot of emphasis on sports and extracurricular activities. Many events are organized on campus around the academic year such as Basant, Lohri, Holi, etc.

Overall, you will have a great experience at IIT Dhanbad.

I have a few friends who have completed their B.tech from IIT (ISM) Dhanbad and Jadavpur University. Here are some crucial factors you must take into account to understand the difference.

  • Legacy: IIT(ISM), Dhanbad is an IIT which is a central level engineering institute and also one of the oldest colleges in the country. On the other hand, JU still remains a state-level university.
  • Infrastructure: If you have visited both campuses, you can clearly see that the infrastructure at JU is crumbling as compared to that of IIT(ISM). JU has a campus the size of IIT(ISM), Dhanbad's lower ground.
  • Rankings: Although most rankings are biased and paid, JU is always ranked below IIT(ISM) Dhanbad except in the NIRF Rankings.
  • Placement packages: The tougher JEE Advanced criteria ensures the quality of students IIT (ISM) Dhanbad. All branches perform quite well. For example - The highest salary offered in CSE in the year 2017 was 1.05 crore

By no means a state-level university can outstand a national-level Institute. IIT (ISM) Dhanbad has an edge over JU in almost all aspects. If you score well enough for IIT (ISM) Dhanbad, there’s no point in thinking about Jadavpur University.

Without any second thoughts, IITKGP is a far better option than IIT Dhanbad in terms of both worth and recognition. The primary reason is its legacy and early establishment. To give you a better picture I am going to entail the pros and causes of IIT KGP bringing to light both sides of the coin.

Pros

  • You will get the chance to pursue the subject that interests you and fuel your passion. 
  • Mechanical branch is much more preferred than metallurgy.
  • IIT ISM is developing at a fast pace and will soon overtake other institutes after its inauguration of the biggest library in India.

Cons:

  • Petroleum engineering does not guarantee good placements. Around 50% of the batch remains and placed and the situation is a result of a steady decline in petroleum industries in India.
  • Dhanbad is not a very promising city in terms of exposure and opportunities.
  • Electrical engineering failed to offer decent placement in the past, and the IIT tag does not seem to improve the situation.

The final decision is for you to make.

The tags of the colleges are always preferable. Both the colleges are the institute of national importance. Even here, IIT Dhanbad seems to be the best among the two because of the IIT tag. But the actual selection should be based on your branch choice and the best college based on that branch.

Wining Institute

MNNIT Allahabad is better among the two in terms of the CSE branch.

  • MNNIT Allahabad is India’s first college that implements computer science engineering. Since then, the faculties here have expertise with the teaching strategies, methodologies, syllabus, and placement of CSE. It has made this institute ahead of some new IITs like ISM Dhanbad, IIT Ropar, IIT Gandhinagar, etc.
  • IIT Dhanbad is also a prestigious institute of India but in terms of branches like mining, whereas MNIT is far better in CSE terms. The highest placements for its two departments are below.

MNNIT Allahabad branch

CSE

INR 12.66 LPA

IT

INR 29.96 LPA

  • In the past, an MNITian had bagged a package of INR 1.34 crores offered by Facebook.

MNNIT Allahabad is an esteemed college. It is ranked among the top three NITs in terms of the CSE branch.

EE at IIT Dhanbad is unquestionably superior to NIT Calicut’s ECE. According to some of my friends studying at IIT Dhanbad, you should never lose the chance of studying at IIT Dhanbad. 

  • So far as the branch is concerned, there is a minor difference. 
  • ECE is more concerned with IT than EE. 
  • But it doesn't matter if you're in a prestigious institution. 
  • In reality, almost all branch students learn to code and apply to tech companies at IIT.
  • You will have plenty of opportunities to learn whatever you want at the institution. 
  • It is entirely up to you whether you want to work in core companies or IT companies after completing EE.

Tabulated difference between these two institutes to give you a clear picture:

Categories ECE from NIT Calicut EE from IIT Dhanbad
Total course fee 5.48 lakhs 8.75 lakhs
Top recruiters ABB, Amadeus, amdocs, Ashok Leyland, Bajaj Auto, CADENCE, Cap Gemini Adobe, Amazon.com, Bridgestone, Cap Gemini, | Facebook, Flipkart, Goldman Sachs, Google
Average salary package 8.1 LPA 9 LPA
Highest salary package 36 LPA 40 LPA

At the end, I just wanna say one thing that, IIT is a brand in itself, so this will undoubtedly assist you in some situations. So, if I were in your shoes, I would go with IIT Dhanbad without any hesitation.

Both IIT Roorkee and ISM Dhanbad are reputed Engineering institutions offering excellent education as well as opportunities. Being an IIT, Roorkee does have a slight advantage over ISM, though ISM too is going to be an IIT one day.

The infrastructure of both institutes is equally good with IIT Roorkee having a slight advantage over ISM because of its early establishment. However, ISM is fast developing and has a beautiful campus. It’s going to house Asia's largest library soon.

Branch-wise, both Applied Mathematics and MNC comprise Mathematical concepts but with a different perspectives. Applied Mathematics has pure math and only those who want to pursue research in the same should go for it. MNC on the other hand is a blend of Maths as well as Computing (coding) and is more in demand than Applied Mathematics. Its scope is also wider than APM and has better placement opportunities.

Eventually, it’s a matter of preferences and not the credibility and worth of the branch that you should focus on.

The choice of the Institute depends on where your interest lies. If you want to study core Geology, then 3-year MSc(tech) course is an excellent option. Both the institutes have below-average core placements with ISM fairing a tad bit better. Irrespective of the Institute and branch, to secure placements you need to be among the top rankers.

My cousin had to choose between IIT Kharagpur‘s MSc in Geophysics and ISM’s MSc(tech) in Geology. She went for Geophysics eventually as he did not consider it wise to waste 3-years in a post-graduate program. In Fact, many of her batchmates dropped IIT Roorkee’s geology and went for Geophysics at IIT KGP. They did not find the teaching and quality of education at IIT Roorkee’s Geology branch as per IIT standards.

I would suggest you go for ISM. But if you too share the same opinion as mine and don’t want to waste 3 years, go for Roorkee and prepare for GATE from the start.

Both Jadavpur University and ISM Dhanbad are reputed institutes. ISM was already quite reputed across India and after getting the IIT tag, the institute has improved quite significantly. 

  • If you are getting branches like CSE/ECE at JU and offbeat branches at IIT ISM, then you should definitely choose JU. 
  • Another advantage of choosing JU is the negligible fee. For a 4 year long B.Tech you will need to pay only around 10,000. 

So, take these factors into consideration, and choose according to your convenience.
